Does this mean I've grown up?

This is the first time I've ever not been depressed at this time of the year. Usually it starts on my birthday, that sense of emptiness and some resentment with no target that manages to fester into sorrow. It's not here. There's not even a slight tinge of anything resembling it. Instead I've managed to maintain this feeling of happiness and optimism. It's... strange but certainly welcome.

Thanks to everyone that wished me a happy birthday, I'm sorry I didn't respond to half of you, it was a hectic day for me. Woke up and Gilligan was laying on my pillow. His face was really swollen, so I had to take him to the vet. But he got better after the vet visit so all is well.

I finally got around to measuring myself with a scale and I've lost about 50 pounds. I'm quite happy about it and I plan to continue losing more weight. I've developed a fondness for long walks, particularly during the night time which is kind of a mixed bag. On the one hand, it's absolutely my favorite time of day. On the other, I'm on generally on edge because of the neighborhood I live in. Ah well, if something happens something happens, I'm not too worried about it.
